Like us all, pastors and church leaders only have a certain amount of time in their week. So it’s important to know what can lead to time drain during the week. Today, we discuss six such items.
Some highlights from today’s episode include:
- Social media can be used for good but it can really eat up your time if you let it.
- Being well rested helps you be more productive when you’re awake.
- Weddings are one of the functions that pastors do which consume the most amount of time. All the related events really add up.
- Having a good assistant you can empower will redeem copious amounts of time for a pastor.
The six time drainers we discuss are:
- Drop by and casual conversations
- Social media
- Weariness
- Long drives to hospitals and other visits
- Weddings
- Handling minutia
